56,413 PointsThere are a couple of things causing the errors. First, the getter in the task is named getShipType()
, not getType()
. Second, I see you changed all the variables over to the m-prefix notation. That's perfectly fine for your own work, but the challenge tester will expect them to retain their original names.
